This home designed in 1938 by Master Builders Hays & Jackson provides a breathtaking canyon view for miles. The home contributed to the designation of The Talmadge Historic District recognized by the San Diego Historical Society and the National Register of Historic Places. Rare combination of incredible view lot, thoughtfully designed home, and modern updates for comfortable daily living and ease of entertaining. Come through the gated entrance to a private walled courtyard that includes a wet bar .. see supplement From the courtyard, enter the home and see the view that captures your attention. The rear cantilevered deck, with new redwood boards, provides abundant gathering space and a newer spa – tremendous views day or night. The deck is completely open to the view but is private from the next-door neighbors. The mahogany sunroom with walls of glass provides a spectacular view of the canyons, with a gas fireplace for cozy retreats. Updated kitchen with dual fuel range and a wine refrigerator. The primary has a newly refreshed ensuite. Original hardwood floors, mostly dual pane windows, and attic insulation ensures both style and comfort. As part of the square footage, there is a detached studio (3rd BR) with canyon views, full bathroom, and attached laundry; buyer to confirm ADU potential (see mockup of laundry conversion to kitchen). Additional upgrades include newer furnace, new AC, and owned solar. Entire sewer line has been replaced. The large front bedroom can easily be converted back to two bedrooms, as per original 1938 design (see photos). Basement/workshop accessed by exterior stairs. Come home to your private oasis in the city.
